document. Where possible a suggestion is given in the Transcriber's Notes of what this letter/letters may be. An asterisk (*) is used to refer to an item in the transcriber's notes, which further explains the entry. The original lister recorded the names as given name and then surname; the transcriber has reversed this order for ease in alphabetizing and reference. Passenger #93 was the only one to die on this voyage. The note at the end of the column says only: "Died on the passage". The date or cause is not mentioned. 3 No age is recorded for this passenger. 13 No occupation is listed for this passenger. 24 and 25 No occupation is listed for these passengers. 66 Surname: Moneny, Monessy. 83 Given name is probably Timothy, but it seems clearly written as it is. 131-137 No information other than name is provided for cabin passengers.
